web.XML - JSP mapping ?

[Frot <fr...@earthling.net>]

Hi,

Also a bit off subject, but I need some mapping for JSP pages.

I get the thing working for servlets fine, using <servlet> & <servlet-mapping>.
I dont seems to get it working for a JSP page.

Could someone be so kind to define the web.xml stuff for following small setup :

	jsp page to be mapped :		/subdir/jsppage.jsp
	logical name for page :		do-jsppage

My code should do something like :

	dorRedirect("do-jsppage") ;

Thanx,
Fred

Every JSP page has an *implicit* mapping that matches it's name
("/subdir/jsppage.jsp" in the case above).  If you want to give this page
a different mapping, you can do so like this:

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>Remapped JSP Page</servlet-name>
    <jsp-file>/subdir/jsppage.jsp</jsp-file>
  </servlet>

  ...

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Remapped JSP Page</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/do-jsppage</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

and now a URL like this:

  http://www.mycompany.com/myapp/do-jsppage

will execute the requested page.
